I replaced the thermostat and the overheating problem is gone. However, I'm now experiencing a new condition. As i was test driving the car to make sure that it was no longer going to overheat I realized that when I turned the heater on (my car has a dual climate control system) it only blows hot on the driver side while the passenger side is completely cold. Has anyone ever experienced this problem? How can I fix it? Thanks for your help.......

The problem can be that the actuator is stripped or inoperative or the door itself could be damaged. This is what needs to be determined by examining the actuator and see if it is responding to heat change commands or not. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. echamp30 New User Feb 4, 2012, 3:26 PM Post #3 of 4 (7391 views) Re: 2002 Toyota Avalon Blows Hot on Driver's side and Cold on Passenger side Sign In Thanks Hammer Time. I'll look into that. Can you briefly explain where the motor/actuator can be found?
